How to do it

1. Lie on the floor with your right knee bent and your right foot flat on the ground. Have your left leg straight for the starting position.
2. Hold a kettlebell in your right hand and keep your wrist, elbow, and shoulder in vertical alignment.
3. Move your left arm to the side with the hand flat on the floor for balance.
4. Engage your abs, take a breath, and raise your torso off the floor, making sure to keep your right arm straight and the kettlebell over your shoulder joint. Push yourself with your left arm until your torso is vertical and you’re in a seated position.
5. With the kettlebell still over your right shoulder and left hand supporting you, bend your left leg and place the knee on the floor, raising yourself.
6. Keep your back straight as you raise your torso higher and remove your left hand from the floor.
7. Square your hips to create a solid lunge position, take another breath, and lift your left knee, stepping on the left foot. As you do that, get up to the standing position by extending your knees and hips. Keep the kettlebell over your shoulder, and don’t bend your elbow.
8. Reverse the motion by lunging back, lifting your left foot off the floor, landing on your left knee, and rotating the left leg behind your body.
